Other claims from this paper (5)
- Method / resource Whole-plant nutrient content early in growth predicted corn yield more precisely than nutrient concentration.
- Method / resource At early tassel, nutrient content gave little predictive advantage over nutrient concentration in different plant parts.
- Association Percent K and percent Mg were negatively correlated in whole plants and different parts.
- Association Calcium and potassium contents were positively correlated across all plant parts and stages.
- Association Potassium and magnesium content had no consistent correlation across parts or growth stages.
